China’s CAR-T cell therapies are attracting international attention. Recently, CSPC Pharmaceutical Group secured another clinical trial approval for a CAR-T therapy, marking a significant milestone in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) officially approved CSPC’s innovative therapy, SYS6020-CAR-T cell injection, for the treatment of refractory generalized myasthenia gravis. This advancement offers new hope for patients with neuromuscular autoimmune diseases.

Chinese Innovation: An mRNA-LNP-Driven CAR-T Product

SYS6020 is a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) cell injection based on mRNA-LNP technology, representing CSPC Pharmaceutical’s first innovation in cell therapy. It is designed to precisely target BCMA-positive B cells and plasma cells, thereby blocking harmful antibody production, significantly alleviating symptoms, and improving patients’ quality of life. Previously, this product had obtained clinical trial approval for systemic lupus erythematosus, and this recent approval marks another successful expansion into the autoimmune disease field.

New Hope for Myasthenia Gravis Treatment: Addressing Long-Term Relapse Issues

Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease caused by autoantibodies, leading to neuromuscular transmission impairment. Some patients struggle with inadequate control under existing treatments, facing recurring relapses and a need for hospitalization. By selectively depleting BCMA-positive cells, SYS6020 aims to achieve long-term symptom improvement and reduce patients’ dependency on immunosuppressants and cholinesterase inhibitors.

CAR-T Therapy in China: More Effective, Safer

SYS6020 demonstrates high cellular activity and CAR-positive rates while significantly reducing risks associated with traditional CAR-T therapies, such as genome integration-related oncogenic risks and cytokine release syndrome (CRS), offering enhanced safety. In June of this year, the therapy received its first clinical approval for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, followed by clinical trial approval for systemic lupus erythematosus, laying the foundation for further expansion into myasthenia gravis treatment.

Summary: Future Developments

CSPC Pharmaceutical has stated that the clinical approval of SYS6020 for myasthenia gravis is a landmark achievement in cell therapy. In the future, CSPC will continue advancing SYS6020’s development for oncology, autoimmune connective tissue diseases, and neuromuscular autoimmune diseases, aiming to provide breakthrough treatment options and tangible clinical benefits for more patients. This groundbreaking progress not only drives CAR-T therapy development in China but also brings new treatment hope to autoimmune disease patients worldwide.
